Cause for Canonisation

Catherine Doherty

A new stage has been reached in Catherine’s Cause. In a letter to the postulator, Father Robert Wild, dated July 21st, 2000, the former Bishop of Pembroke, the Most Rev. Brendan O’Brien, wrote:

“Catherine can be referred to as ‘Servant of God’ once the inquiry has been started at the diocesan level. One may refer to her in this way in writings or talks since this is the customary way of referring to those whose cause is under consideration.”

Thanks be to God!
